Sofina Foods Inc. is recalling Janes brand Pub Style Chicken Nuggets across Canada due to risk of possible salmonella contamination.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued the food recall March 21, warning consumers not to eat the product described by the food product supplier.

The recall was triggered during a Canadian Food Inspection Agency investigation into a foodborne illness outbreak. On Feb. 25, Sofina Foods Inc. also recalled Crisp & Delicious brand Chicken Breast Nuggets due to a possible salmonella contamination.

CIFA notes that other products may be recalled as the agency continues its food safety investigation.
